Suggested Learning Projects:
Î Self-Directed Learning: Ask the manager to go out during the week and take three courses of action to evaluate and improve their relationships with the individuals on their team. Discuss their actions at your next coaching session, as well as any observed impact that their actions had on their relationships with their team members. Î Observational Coaching: Assign your coaching target to observe other teams around them throughout the week and their relationships with their managers. What differences and similarities do they notice between their team and others? What takeaways from their observations can they implement in their own relationship evaluations and maintenance of their relationships with the folks on their team?
Supplemental Coaching Strategies:
Î 30-Second Coaching: As the individual really dives into evaluating and building/maintaining their relationships with the folks on their team, take 30 seconds to share the specific actions taken by them that you have observed, as well as how those actions are beneficial to their team. Let them know that their efforts are appreciated. Î Journal-Based Coaching: Ask the manager to keep a journal with entries noting their successes as they work on their employee relationships and what led to those successes. They should evaluate the challenges that they come across in the process and how they can take those challenges in the future and turn them into successes.
